We're excited to be partnering with KFC as they expand their initiatives with diversity, equity and inclusion in the tech space. KFC is collaborating with us in order to hire more women in tech roles within their teams. We’ll be sharing jobs from KFC with the Ada’s List community over the next few months.
Ada’s List is a global platform for women in technology, and is the largest community for women in tech in Europe. We exist to make women in technology stronger as individuals and as a community, and a big part of that work is driving the conversation about inclusivity across all areas of tech, and challenging the sector at all levels, whether that be a small startup or a large company. We focus on three pillars: careers, companies and culture, to make tangible changes in the global tech community.
Let’s continue to drive and encourage a more inclusive, diverse and equitable environment throughout the whole industry.
“KFC are continuously looking to further drive our inclusivity efforts, and partnering with Ada’s List is a fantastic opportunity to raise awareness of KFC’s Digital Tech Team with like minded individuals. Our Digital Tech Team is led by a woman - our amazing Jennie Wright - and our aim is to continue increasing the representation of women from all backgrounds, both within our team and across the board.” - Rekha Aucklah, KFC
A little more from the KFC team -
“At KFC, our platform has evolved consistently in order to make it as easy as possible for our customers to enjoy our products. 4 year ago, we brought our development in-house, which has really allowed us to drive both collaboration and innovation. We aim to empower our employees to be their best selves, make a difference and, of course, have fun!
While we’re one of the world’s biggest and most loved brands, we’re still a fairly small tech team of around 50 people (and growing!) so you’ll have the opportunity to get involved in different projects and exposed to different areas.
KFC’s digital technology stack has grown to process nearly half of all transactions that come through our restaurants. We’re now looking for new people to help us drive these developments even further moving forward.”

We want everything that’s built to not only be fit for purpose but work well so we test everything rigorously. We currently use a mix of manual and automation testing but we’re looking to drive more automation across all parts of the business and need the Lead to feel comfortable in helping to change ways of working as well as be hands on in the testing.
We use a lot of different Testing tools so are quite open in what your experience is with but some key tools for us include
We use React on our front-end and Node.js on our back-end so experience with JavaScript is ideal, but we’re happy to support your learning if you don’t have it.
